Roger. Makes sense. Hey, maybe you'll have an idea - so, one of my bleeder valves seeped some fluid out while I was on the track. Disconcerting, and I may take her to the dealership to find out wtf the issue was - I tightened the **** out of it, and it'd still leak a bit.

Anyway, point is, I think it stained the paint - cant seem to get the marks off at all. Figure its burned into the clear and about the only thing to fix it is an aggressive polish?
